Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen
All Jessica wants to
do is run, but when a bus accident on her way home from a track meet causes her
to lose her leg, she thinks her dreams of glory are over. Jessica struggles
with school, friends, and her family as she tries to overcome the new obstacles
in her way. But her perspective changes when she is seated next to Rosa, a
wheelchair-bound classmate who has been sitting in the back of the room
forever. Determined to help Rosa make her dream come true, Jessica is able to
realize that the loss of a leg doesn't mean she has to give up her dreams.
